Wow, that sucks.

What happened, or is it something personal? >>"

[hughes]

Kinda personal, so I won't go into the details, but the general gist of it is that she told a lot of lies about herself to get pity and attention, (and I mean serious stuff, like saying she had cancer), while at the same time overexaggerating or outright lying about stuff that made her sound appealing (saying she was friends with band members, etc). I myself was really good friends with her for a few years--even spent a few days with her IRL--and because she managed to keep most of the lies straight, none of us suspected she was playing us for fools until just a few months ago. It was kind of a creeping realization, though.

That was in regards to me and my other friend, though. To klytaemnestra and the person who sent in the secret? She did so much more.

...and I'm going like "watch lol she really gets cancer"

*terrible person*

That's an awful thing to do, though.

[hughes]

Yeah, you actually kind of hit the nail on the head. XD; Like... some horrible stuff really HAD happened to her to make her so fucked up in the first place, which made it doubly hard to separate the truth from the lies. :| Because on one hand, it was all so unbelievable, but on the other, if she was telling the truth, it'd make us horrible people to question it.

Yeah. She left a huge mess. x_x

*dies* Makes me glad I've never heard of her. Sorry you guys had to go through that.

[hughes]

Yeah, the less people who know her the better. :[ I'd give her LJ name as a warning, but I think she feels too "cool" to hang around and do much fandom stuff on LJ nowadays. But anyway, thanks for hearing that out. XD <3

My sister who is diagnosed as being borderline did the exact same thing to her friends. And it destroyed them.

What is wrong with some people? o_O;

They want to be helpless and worried over and need to know for sure'n have like concrete evidence that people care about them or something so they turn themselves into victims and make stuff up to be victimized by even if nothing exists 'cause they're insecure? :D

/random psychobabble stuff

I think in certain instances a healthy dose of like, egoism is good, 'cause if you're all "what you mean my friends don't care, of COURSE they care, how could they not" then... huge load off everybody's backs. *dies*

That sounds about right. =_= Of course, all they do in the end is hurt other people.

Man this sounds like someone who frequented a gamer's forum that I was part of a few years ago and who told a bunch of pitable stories about herself that we later found were lies.

Then a supposed rl friend posted that this girl had committed suicide. We were a close knit gaming group at the time and the whole community was just stunned. Several people felt incredible guilt, posting how they felt they should have been able to prevent it.

You probably can see where this is going. Yep, the "real life friend" who had posted the suicide news was the same girl with a different account. She had faked her own suicide and then had sat back and read all the grieving posts about her.

There are some really sick people out there.

[klytaemnestra.livejournal.com]

People need help.

Everyone's looking for someone to 'care' about them, and really if you're honest someone out there will come to care about you. Had she been an honest friend I wouldn't have not cared about her, but I suppose she just needed something more to solidify it. I was always wanting to protect her from something because she was so very young when I first met her. And really, she was completely brainwashing me with her crap. When she mentioned me in her journal I got isanely happy and flattered and loved. And when she didn't I'd emo over it.

She did a real number on me for about six months and then was a presence in my life for years after. And I know she did the exact same thing to others and it makes me sick because I didn't spot it early on. I didn't jerk her around and tell her to stop with her whining and DO something to help herself.

And she's probably doing it to someone else now. All of us got tired of her shit, we grew up, moved on, saw between the lies. And some poor kid's getting the same treatment now in all likelihood. x_x
